A car was available for me to drive. That was good. The bad: 1) Original quote was for £ 275 - the local Hertz desk charged me £ 691 and tried to charge me over £ 800!! 2) I requested an automatic transmission and got a stick 3) there was a huge scratch in the rear passenger door 4) There was no return sign at the Inverness airport for Hertz, all the other rental car agencies were represented but not Hertz. We had to drive around for 10 min trying to find it, and luckily saw the tiny Hertz sign upon leaving the airport. Kind of a disaster regarding the drop off.

We enjoyed our Ford Kuga for our Scottish Highlands road trip. Although the car doesn't have the oomph as other cars, it certainly met our needs. The car had ample space for our luggage and provided a good ride.

Because of a late flight, my wife and daughter did not get to the Hertz office in time to pick up the rental. They had to arrange to pick it up the next day losing a day of the intended contract. For them to do this, they charged an extra $150.00!! Thank you Hertz, I will not be back.

The offering of insurance prior to getting the vehicle should have been better , since the insurance at the counter was outrageous. Also the drop off should have been described, since in that airport it is rather convoluted.

We had a great experience with Craig at the rental counter when we realized we booked from the city location. He got us taken care of and on our way quickly

I felt pressured to upgrade to a car model that I did not need for my trip. When I arrived I was told that the car I had reserved many weeks in advance would not be ready for quite some time, but I could upgrade for minimal cost. In the end the minimal cost turned out to be much more.

The check in was easy, no waiting. Was able to upgrade with GPS, which was the best decision.

Signs to get to the check in and check out were not posted well. We spent too much time trying to find the correct place. The car had too electronics that took control of the car at times, causing unnecessary stress.

Making a reservation was easy, prices quoted looked great.

I couldn't change the name on my reservation, and had to cancel the original and make a new reservation in order to accomplish this. My confirmation email was never sent to me, and the actual price at the counter appeared to be more than my reservation price. I also tried to reserve a midsize SUV, but ended up getting a Volkswagen golf (which is supposedly a size larger than what I reserved.

Drop off with John at Avis was really great! Such courteous and friendly service. So nice to see such professionalism. Would be great to have instructions in the car for using Satnav maps. I used my iPhone but was a little confused with car screen presentation at times. Overall a fabulous experience and would definitely recommend Avis at this location.

The car was great. Excellent gas mileage, handled well, and was absolutely impeccable when we picked it up. Service was kind and friendly.

The return process has been a little frustrating. First, I was not told that I would need to keep the copy of the paperwork stating our agreement to give to the Avis rep on Orkney. Had I known that, I would have put it with the other confirmations and information that I was toting around instead of panicking. Second, I found the paperwork, gave the keys to the Avis rep, he said he would get it South from there, and I had nothing further to do. Unfortunately, I got an email from Avis telling me I was in breach of contract because the car hadn't been returned. This issue has not been resolved and is currently my only frustration with the rental.

The night before I was expected to pick my car up I received an email stating that the car would not be on site at the scheduled time the following day and no time was given. I called the car rental company the morning I was supposed to collect the car as the email they sent the day before was after hours so there was nobody manning the customer support service. When I spoke to a representative they continued to state that they Did not have the car I ordered available and at that time there were no other cars to select from.. Approximately two hours later they did provide a car although it wasn’t the car I had initially selected. The delay cut in to our travel time as we was scheduled to drive to another location that morning but did not leave until the afternoon due to the delay in receiving a car.

Car was very good, clean and comfortable. No issue with the car.

When I returned the car, the assistant manager went straight to one tyre and pointed out a couple of dents in the tyre wall that he claims I must have caused as the tyres were in perfect condition before the rental. When I told him that the pre-rental check of the car only included the bodywork and that the guy mentioned that damage to the wheels was normal and didn't count, he said he'd check with the guy that I picked the car up from. The guy was in the back office and didn't come out but the assistant manager assured me that I was invited to inspect the tyres beforehand. The was simply not true. I was charged £300 to replace the tyre. Outrageous.

Customer service was awful, rude, aggressive, arrogant and unhelpful. The car I received was 4 years old and I took 61 photos of dents and scratches that were on the car prior to me driving it. No handover, just thrown the keys. Tyres were under-inflated, brakes were grinding and interior had been cleaned, but drivers seat was dirty. Drop off was a better experience, that particular person was not there. First time using Europcar, and last. There needs to be a complete overhaul of the customer service experience and their vehicles. Would definitely not recommend.

I had a rental confirmation for a particular car when I went to the rental desk to pick it up. The person at the desk asked me a few questions about the number of bags and number of passengers and he recommended to get a larger car because he thought the one I had would be too small. I looked at the two cars he had to offer and did agree to a Rav4 for 150 pounds a day. I knew this would be more than the original quote but there was never any mention of a bunch of extra charges that ran the price up over $5000 dollars for an 11 day rental!! Transparency is the key to both parties being satisfied with a deal. I feel I was victim to a mis-representation of the costs. I would never have gone through with the deal had I been given the price with all the unjustified extras.
